Gay scenes:
Lorenzo and David, two different styles of sportsmen, look at it is a kind of enjoyment, but it's not just for looks. Watching TV hugging each other, preparing to fold the clothes, the unique eyes in the crowd, etc., like a little bit of water, paddling past, there is some warmth, but it is basically deja vu.
The actor's performance is powerless, especially in the second half, after Lorenzo's death, David couldn't bear the loneliness of living alone, his eyes turned red several times, and he cried several times to the point of trembling. It's a pity that the tears of the handsome guy are not enough for the show.
Friendship section:
This small group seems to be seven people. There are beautiful girls, uncles, handsome guys, handsome men, charming young women, bloated old women... The director seems to be trying to prove that friendship can transcend age, gender, occupation, appearance, etc., but I keep thinking, such a huge span The combination is like a big family, can they express "eternity" as the director wishes? You must know that large families with multiple generations often fall apart, and the only thing that can connect them is blood. Other than that, it's really hard to say.
Sometimes, the more eager you are to express a belief, the easier it is to distort it. The big director must have understood this little truth, but he still accidentally left traces of haste.
Marriage stage: As a
husband, he has cheated and continues to cheat, but he has to pretend to be a good person because he "doesn't want to lie", so he said to his wife boldly: Please help me through this difficult time. Seeing this, I immediately thought of an insulting comment: it is necessary to pretend to be **, but also to stand up. In fact, the director can be a little bit more ruthless: a man, he can be a knife to his brothers, and he can show mercy to women everywhere. This small contrast doesn't detract from the freshness of a person's image at all. The director should understand this truth better than ordinary people, wondering...
As for the wife, the characteristics are not very clear: the way of anger is too conventional, and the pain is not conveyed in place.
All in all, the film has more to express: friendship, marriage, gay love... The result is that none of them are thorough. Looking at it, it feels like a fairy tale in the adult world, and the desire is quite clear, but the effect of expression is too unsharp. Perhaps it was this sincere, clear, slightly urgent desire that moved me.
